TILAPIA WITH ROASTED TOMATO & PESTO SAUCE
I came across this recipe for Tilapia with Pesto and Oven Roasted Tomatoes a while ago an I thought that it sounded nice and fresh and summery. I have made basil pesto many times but I have pretty much only used it with pasta. I really liked the idea of using it in a new way. Add the lemon to the pesto sounded like a good way to brighten it up. To top it all off, some roasted tomatoes which are one of my favorites! I really liked the choice of serving the tilapia with quinoa and asparagus. I cooked the quinoa in chicken stock and lemon juice to add a bit of flavor to it. The meal came together easily and it was really good! The fish was super moist and along with the lemon, pesto and roasted tomatoes it was really tasty. The quinoa helped soak up the extra juices from the fish and roasted tomatoes infusing it with flavor. I enjoyed using the pesto in the dish and I can't wait to try using pesto in other new ways.

OVEN ROASTED TILAPIA WITH TOMATOES, PESTO AND LEMON
Looking for something impressive but oh so easy? This simple and delicious dish would make a great 'date night' dinner or even doubled for a dinner party. Tilapia is a really mild fish without that 'fishy' taste making this a great recipe for people who do not like fish and a wonderful meal for those who do! Pesto and tomatoes are so lovely and aromatic together and roasting allows the flavors to intensify. What a simple way to create an incredibly delicious dish. In order to soak up every delicious drop I would serve this over a simple rice like my Recipe#137364 or serve it with a good crusty bread. Adding a simple green salad and a wonderful bottle of wine would make this meal totally rock! I would serve it with Chateau Ste Michele Dry Riesling. I found this recipe on http://ellysaysopa.com/2008/03/03/fish-for-people-who-dont-like-fish/ Of course I did change up a few things that I thought would make it even better. My mouth was watering so much when I read this recipe that I had to share it with you as fast as I could! If you try this before I get to the store and am able to make it please let me know what you think! After Breezermom's helpful comment I edited the directions for the pesto and lemon juice so the pesto is not runny. Thanks breezer!

Steps:
- Gently combine the tomatoes, garlic and olive oil with a little salt and pepper if desired and roast in a preheated 425 degree oven for about 10 minutes.
- Juice the lemon and mix SOME of the juice with the pesto, adding more if desired or needed keeping the pesto a nice spreadable consistency and not runny. (Thanks breezer mom!) Spread mixture on top of the fish which has been seasoned with a little more salt and pepper if desired.
- Cut the juiced lemon halves in half again so that you have two pieces of lemon to support each filet. Place a filet on top of two pieces of juiced lemon so that the fish is somewhat out of any liquid that accumulates, allowing it to roast rather than boil.
- Return to oven for about 10 minutes or until the fish is flaky and no longer opaque.
- Plate the fish along with the tomatoes and garlic and serve with more lemon wedges if desired.
